1 · Choose the disk

2 · Design the layout

Your files

Result on sda · 500 GB

Locked parts use LUKS2 encryption. The swap gets a new random key at every start, so there is no hibernation. You can also add other mount points (/var, a data partition…) with ext4, xfs or btrfs.

3 · Choose your passphrase

You will type it at every start. Without it, nobody can read the disk, not even you.

type at least 8 characters At boot the passphrase is typed with the keyboard layout you chose (for example it, us, de). Mind special characters.

4 · Read the plan


      
Everything on sda will be erased. nvme0n1 (Windows) will not be touched.
